A Passion for Markers BlogSpot #753 - Add a Button - Sponsored by Polkadoodles

Hello everyone wishing you all a lovely day !

Today I'm here to let you know that a new challenge has started over on the Passion for Markers Blog challenge and I hope that you will join in.

This weeks challenge theme of 'Add a Button' has been chosen by Karen for team 2 and is being sponsored by Polkadoodles

For my card today I chose to use a cute digital image from the Wanda collection, this image is called Clumsy

Today I have created a faux stepper card that fits a standard 5" x 7" envelope, from green card stock. I have used a couple of papers from the Winnie Daisy Fairy 2 collection to mat and layer onto the panels.

The image was  resized to suit the card and printed out along with one of the digital sentiments from the collection onto alcohol friendly card stock. I then coloured the image of Wanda using with my Promarkers to coordinate with the bright colored papers.

I used a little distress ink to add a floor line for Wanda to stand on and then added little stars and some ink blending around the edge of the panel to take away the stark white of the card.

The button, from my stash was added to the bottom of the card using some emerald green twine and then I used my gelly roll pens to add highlights and sparkle around the design.

Once finished I added some purple confetti around the design.

I hope that you join in with the challenge as there is a prize from the sponsor for our lucky winner!

I really hope that you have enjoyed my card today and will drop by again to see my next project and don't forget to join in with the challenge over on the Passion for Markers blog

I Love Promarkers #556 - Add a Button - Sponsored by CFL Digi Designs

Hello everyone wishing you a wonderful Wednesday! 

I'm on my blog today for the new bi-weekly I Love Promarkers blog challenge , it would be wonderful if you joined us over there if you love to colour with alcohol markers and don't forget there are prizes up for grabs.  

You can find all of the rules and details for the challenge over on the blog. 

This challenge is being sponsored by CFL Digi Designs one of our amazing and very talented teamies Caroline.

Here is my inspiration card for the current blog challenge with the theme - Add a button, using this very beautiful digital stamp of a vase of lilies I decided to create a more traditional floral card for this challenge, keeping it very simple. 

This is an A6 card (UK size), with a simple panel of pink striped paper in the background.  I used a Stargazer Lily as my inspiration to colour the image using promarkers (see below for colours) and then used one of the arch dies to cut out the design. 

To add interest I die cut another arch panel in pink and an additional pink card frame, layering these onto the card, using foam tape to give dimension to the design.  

To complete the design I have tied a small piece of cream twine through a small wooden heart shaped button and adhered this along with a simple sentiment strip from my stash. 

The finishing touches were some glitter pen to the vase and a few small pink gems around the design.

I really hope that you like my card today and will drop by again to see my next project and don't forget to join in with the challenge over on the I Love Markers blog

Hasta luego 👋 

Enjoy the rest of your day !
